CHILDREN'S DAY“Children are not things to be moulded, but people to be unfolded.” – Jess Lair
Children’s day at Suncity School 37D was celebrated with a movie outing for the children. Movies are not only a source of entertainment. They are an immensely powerful medium that can educate and influence young minds, widening their canvas and helping them build a strong value system. Understanding how one adapts to their surroundings and as friends how you are there for each other was the learning when students of Grades III – V watched the Disney movie ‘Lyle Lyle Crocodile’. SuperHero movies never go out of style. Students of Grades VI to X watched the DC movie ‘Black Adams’ with their friends. Loading up on movie treats with Popcorns & soft drink with a dash of chocolate completed the whole movie ensemble.
